-y^2-4y+3y+12=3y-5
-y^2-4y+17=0
b^2-4ac=(-4)^2-4*(-1)*17=16+68=84
y=(4 plus or minus 2√21)/(-2)= -2 plus or minus √21

How many computers must the AB Computer Company sell to break even? Let x be the number of computers.
maksim [4K]

You break even if you spend exactly as much as you gain. In other words, if the cost and the revenue are the same:

C(x)=R(x) \iff 145+0.25x=1.5x

Subtract 0.25 from both sides:

145=1.25x

Divide both sides by 1.25:

x=\dfrac{145}{1.25}=116

So, they must sell 116 computers to break even. If they sell less, they'll lose money. If they sell more, they'll start making profit.

Simplify 5(3x-6)-8(3x-7)<br><br> Can someone explain how to do this in English?
Lunna [17]
Remember the distributive property? It goes like x(a+b)=xa+xb... For example 3(6+7)=(3*6)+(3*7)=39
Same here
5(3x-6)-8(3x-7)
do the thing
(15x-30)-(24x-56)
Take parentheses off.
15x-30-24x+56
//WHY PLUS 56 NOT MINUS?
//because there was a minus sign outside the original parentheses, so the signs inside have to be flipped when the parentheses is taken off
//Let's simplify now
15x-24x-30+56
-9x+26
^^The answer!
